Prolonged exposure will eventually cause you to become deaf to that particular frequency, so I'd like to know how we're all faring.

There are flat models too. I have a 26 flat one from 2005 for retro gaming. Its not one of the fancier models either.

And to op, yeah, probably. I grew up with them and they were around until me being in high school.

It actually emanates from the horizontal sweep circuitry including the flyback transformer & deflection yoke.

15,750Hz horizontal sweep frequency for a standard NTSC TV.

I was born in 2000, we had a really bulky square tv for a long time but I'm not sure that was a tube tv. So I can't really say. Can the sound be recorded on video?

All I remember was a very low pitched constant ringing sound.

You only really heard it on boot up or if you had the sound completely off.

Slightly quieter than regular ear ringing.

Yeah, I always used to know if someone was turning on the TV, even if I wasn't in the room, I remember the high pitched "weep" sound it made.

Also, anybody else remember the sounds of static electricity sparking whenever you turned it off? Most people don't remember that!

I think you'd be surprised, I used a CRT for the first time in ages last year... couldn't believe how noisy it was, I don't ever remember them being like that.

The problem was that the bigger TVs didn't really have nowhere to grip them.

Even if they did a guy wasn't going to snatched them up with one arm and lug it around.

I learned that you had to keep the screen part up against your chest or the blasted thing could flop out of you hands.

Yep, always run my hand across the screen when I turn mine on or off and feel that light static electricity. No idea why, it doesn't help performance or anything, but I like doing it.
